I'm delighted to see Shelley Heath named. She's the female equivalent of Nev Jetta. Tough as, hard at it defender. Doesn't lose to many one on one's.

Came here to say the same. Super glad to see her recognised. Maybe won't suffer the same 'underrated' tag Jetta did for so long!

Note that this is the extended squad, final team of 21 to be announced at the W Awards.

It'll be the first AFLW AA without Paxman, a great feat by her. Kearney from North who is the only other to have featured every year is still in the hunt.

Congrats to Irishwoman Cora Staunton who makes the extended team at age 40 - she's an absolute force.


Harris is a certainty. 

L.Pearce owed one for last year - hopefully she is named this time around.

Birch's form dropped off in the last month, but may go close.

I'm a big fan of both Hanks & Heath, but it's a tough field. I can't see Hore getting in.

I'm sure the selectors would love to squeeze Daisy in for one last guernsey after her big finish to the year. Could it happen?

 

Melbourne’s 2022 AFLPA MVP Awards nominees -

MVP: Tayla Harris, Lauren Pearce, Tyla Hanks

Best First-Year Player: Eliza West

Most Courageous: Shelley Heath

Best Captain: Daisy Pearce

To be announced on The Front Bar, Wednesday 6 April. 

 

A shame that Heath missed out. She will have her day though. You just know when she lays a tackle they're not getting away from her, no matter the size difference. A fierce competitor; we're lucky to have her in the red & blue.

Congrats to Daisy, Tayla, Libby and Lauren. Fully deserved. Hopefully the team can top off a fine season with a win in the big one on Saturday

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
